I recently ordered few stamps from Unity. I used to have a subscription, getting many stamps each month. When I realized I use less than I buy - I stopped (but it took me about 2 years to get to this conclusion :-)).
Anyway - This month I decided to join their blog challenge, and I created this card (as well as this layout):

On Hanukkah I got this picture (+2 more - cut as flames) from her nanny to symbolize the holiday.
It was cute and exciting - Koren's first Hanukkah.
The layout is inspired by Scrappy Hands challenge #3:

When I saw sketch #237 @ Unscripted Sketches I knew I want to create a layout with multiple pictures.
I went through my printed pictures and I saw ~11 pictures, printed half-size and I decided that "this is it".
After I added black matting and tried to put them on the paper, I realized there's not enough room for all of them, so I ended up with "only" 9.
This is my second time I do sky dive. It happened 2 years ago.
My husband bought me a present for my birthday (some were wondering if he's trying to get rid of me LOL) and few months later we made it happen...
Eventually - I was almost strangled... I had blue-purple marks on my hands for weeks afterwards :-( But the view was breathtaking :-)

Creating this tag, and finding the right title for it made me think...
It's never too late - there's always time for new beginnings, there's always time to make a change...
Don't give up... Don't think that you're too old for something...
If you want something - make it happen!
It all starts NOW!

Another interactive card: this time wedding-oriented
I was inspired by Scrappy Hands 2nd challenge: last row: yellow, stamp and lace.
I tied up threads to red hearts, like cans of "newly wed" couple...
When you open the card - there is a spiral with bride, groom & little heart....
What do you think?

I need to print more pictures.
This picture was taken on July, when Koren was less than 3 months.
She's 8 months today **in love**
It's amazing how she grew - from a tiny helpless baby, to gorgeous **less helpless** baby ☺
The layout was inspired by sketch 236 @ Unscripted Sketches
Besides the vertical stripes, I added the picture horizontally, to "break" the vertical layout.
The picture was taken during the summer vacation, while I was in maternity leave. And since Yaara & Mor were also in "mommy camp" (☺) I tried to do something else each day. On that day, I took them to a forest nearby, had a small picnic for breakfast, and then each of us took pictures with her own camera... Like a "photography day"... It was nice ☺.
Appreciate your comments...

October 2011.
Ice-skate "arena" was built in Modi'in (for a month or something).
The girls asked and we went... All of us... And even had fun :-)
The layout is inspired by Unity's challenge.

A little embarrassing to say, but I already used this stamp :-)
There are so many stamps I have that I didn't use - maybe this is the embarrassing thing...
Anyway - the card is inspired by clean & simple stamping #271

Overall I really like this layout:
Picture were taken on Independence day 2012, we went to Latrun to see some tanks.
When we were on our way back to the car - the girls blew on these flowers (and maybe made a wish?)

This layout is inspired by the 2nd challenge of 'Scrappy Hands': Bingo challenge. I chose the right column: nature, green, lace.
